Something meaningful.. Worth Pondering...

First time as "Tour Guide" to HCM!

I've been to Ho Chi Minh thrice already, since 2007, like once a year... and now in 2010 is my 4th time... But this time, I'm bringing my parents & elder sis, all whom have NEVER been to HCM at all!!!! I'm gonna be their so-call "tour guide", probably quite a lousy one bah... LOL...

Well, I've already asked some friends who are "regulars" there, and also based on the memories of the places there which I've been, to create an itinerary for our 4days there! I just hope the language barrier is not gonna posed too big a problem for us!!! =X

Motorists practically take up 70% (???) of the roads there... And seems to me that the vehicles there move in ALL sort of DIFFERENT directions on the same road... And crossing roads is the MAJOR problem I will face.... *gulp*

But that doesn't deter me from looking forward to going to the place.... and it's becos of the arrays of CHEAP & SUMPTUOUS FOOD!!!!!!!!!

I hope my parents & sis will have an enjoyable time there. with me as their "tour guide"!!! I really hope that everything will go smoothly and safely, and that we can all have an unforgettably fun time there!! =)

Okay, in another 12hrs time, we'll be leaving on a (jet)plane.... Away from this place which has recently kinda made me feel pretty moody.... =X4days, to let me have some time away to "clear my head"... And hopefully when I come back, I'll again, be the same "happy-go-lucky-and-nothing-can-make-me-upset" gal!! Wish me luck!!! Till then... Cheers!!!! ;D

S'pore Blog Awards 2010 - 10 July

Attended the Singapore Blog Awards, that is held at St James Movida, for the first time!!! Brought Ms PL, who is free to company me, to the event together... Registration starts from 4pm onwards and by right supposed to meet Ms PL at 410pm outside St James, but end up both were late... I reached ard 420 & Ms PL only reached at 440pm!! She was so late.... becos her friend called her at a last minute notice to visit Universal Studio!!! Poor PL. went in for only about an hour, took one ride only and have to rushed out to meet me... LOL...

And so we went in... The place wasn't as crowded or packed as I expected... But ppl were still coming in at that time....

I have no idea who the host was (sorry), but she was reali great... So fluent in both English and Mandarin & she has really done a great job for the event!!!

Silver Ang and several others who were nominated for the best modelling blog: Bong Qiu Qiu, Kanny Theng, Yutaki, etc, were there for the event... I think only Ms XS didn't turn up?!?!?!? =p

Silver kept everyone entertained by performing a couple of songs!!! She sang really well and she was really sweet & friendly.... There was this contest going on where each of us were give 3 "Like" stickers at the entrance & the selected few "finalist" would walk ard for us to choose whether to "Like" them or not... Our only choice, Silver Ang, cos she's definitely the most outstanding of them all... We asked her to take photos with us and she gladly obliged... So nice of her... =)

And guess what, the INFAMOUS Steven Lim was there too & somehow one of the finalist & went ard the whole place "PULLING" for votes... Duhzzzz... During the event, he was standing infront of me & PL and we were rather "irritated" by him already.... He was with these 3 gals, who rather looks like Chinese Nationals, and my friend overheard him saying to the 3 of them in mandarin: "Hey, you 3 are here to support me right, so you stick all your "Like" stickers on me lah"!!! It's so damn OMG lor!!!!! *rolls eyes & faints* But looking at his actions, the way he behaved & talked, one word "hilarious"!!! LOL LOL LOL LOL

Oh ya, heard that Ris Low was present at the event too.... But too bad never see her... And no wonder Silver, while on stage, mentioned something about her "boomz hairdo"!!! Hahahahahaha...

Anyways, didn't take much photo with PL as we were busy standing at a corner & watching the event.... But when the main awards were given out already, ppl start dispersing or going for breaks, so we managed to sit down for a little rest & took a couple of shots... My sister's cam is so so so bright that taking pic at near distance creates this "too-bright" effect... But we liked it anyways cos it makes our "flaws hidden", esp for me, when you compare my above pics with Silver... LOLxxx

Overall, it was quite a great experience for both me & PL.... We definitely won't mind attending next year's SBA again!!! =)

Love Story... ... You Belong With Me... ...

We were both young when I first saw you.I close my eyes, and the flashback starts,I'm standing there, On the balcony in summer air. I see the lights, see the party, the ballgowns.See you make your way through the crowd, And say, "Hello",Little did I know,That you were Romeo, You were throwing pebbles,And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet. And I was crying on the staircase, Begging you, "Please don't go".And I said, "Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.I'll be waiting, all that's left to do is run.You be the prince, and I'll be the princess, It's a love story, baby, just say, 'yes'."So I sneak out to the garden to see you, We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if he knew,So close your eyes, Escape this town for a little while.'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."But you were everything to me, Begging you, "Please don't go".

And I said, "Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.I'll be waiting, all that's left to do is run.You be the prince, and I'll be the princess, It's a love story, baby, just say, 'yes'.""Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.This love is difficult, but it's real.Don't be afraid, we'll make it of this mess,It's a love story, baby, just say, 'yes'."

Well, I got tired of waiting, Wondering if you were ever coming around.My faith in you was fading, When I met you on the outskirts of town.And I said, "Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.I keep waiting for you, but you never come.Is this in my head, I don't know what to think,"

You knelt to the ground, And pulled out a ring and said,"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.I love you, and that's all I really know.I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress,It's a love story, baby just say yes."

We were both young when I first saw you...

YOU BELONG WITH ME

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, She's upset.She's going off about something that you said. She doesnt get your humour like I do.I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night, I'm listening to the kind of music she doesnt like.And she'll never know your story like I do.

But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts, She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers, Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find,That what you're lookin for has been here the whole time.

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you,Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me. You belong with me.

Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans,I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be.Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself, Hey isnt this easy?And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town.I havent seen it in awhile, since she brought you down.You say you find I know you better than that. Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?She wears high heels, I wear sneakers, She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers.Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find,That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you.Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me.

Standin by, waiting at your back door, All this time how could you not know that?You belong with me, You belong with me.

Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night.I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry.I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams.I think I know where you belong.I think I know it's with me.

Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?Been here all along so why can't you see?You belong with me.

tanding by or waiting at your back door, All this time how could you not know that,You belong with me, You belong with me.Have you ever thought just maybe, You belong with me. You belong with me.
